How to use 5 IN 1 Organic Fertiliser in vegetable gardening
Using 5 IN 1 Organic Fertiliser from Searles in your vegetable garden is simple and effective. These steps ensure you get the most out of this high-quality organic fertiliser.
Prepare your soil: Before applying the fertiliser, make sure your soil is well-prepared. Remove any weeds, loosen the ground, and ensure good drainage. This will create the optimal growing environment for your vegetables.
To find the correct amount, check the packaging of the 5 IN 1 Organic Fertiliser. We base the recommended rates on the size of your garden or containers. For preparing vegetables in the garden, apply a 2cm layer of 5 IN 1® Organic Fertiliser – Dig-In over the existing garden bed and dig thoroughly to mix. For fertilising vegetables in pots, sprinkle 5 IN 1 Organic Fertiliser – Pellets onto the soil and water.
Water thoroughly: Water your vegetable garden well after applying the fertiliser. This will help activate the nutrients and ensure they reach your plants' root zone. Watering also helps to prevent nutrient burn and allows for better absorption.
Monitor and reapply: Monitor your plants' progress and check for signs of nutrient deficiencies. If needed, reapply the 5 IN 1 Organic Fertiliser Pellets according to the recommended application rates. This will provide ongoing nutrition for your vegetables throughout their growing season.
